    Abstract: A carrying case especially suitable for use in carrying compact disks comprises a pair of circular faces connected to each other in spaced relationship by a circumferential wall having an opening. A cover is positioned over the opening, and is slidable between a closed position in which the opening is covered by the cover and an open position wherein the opening is at least partially exposed for insertion of disks into, or removal of disks from, the carrying case. Each disk to be inserted in the carrying case may be provided with a lint-free, scratch-free sleeve which protects the disk against scratching when it is in the case and also once it has been removed from the case.
